Planning to join your child's class for an occasional field trip or help in the class for special projects? As your child gets older, perhaps there will be an overnight trip you'll chaperone.
To help out at the school with students, you need a minimum of a background check. For an overnight field trip, chaperones must complete a full fingerprint background check and form.
